Representing an opposite fashion direction Giambattista Valli presented his Autumn/Winter 2010-2011 collection.
Catwalk was full of classic and sexy clean cut dresses worn with black semi opaque tights.
Even the light beige dress suit was accessorised by black tights creating a catchy contrast.

Alexander Wang ‘s Autumn/Winter 2010-2011 collection combined 2 trends of leg wear: over knee socks and leggings worn over the shoes over shoes.
Black opaque toeless over knee socks provided a contrast with a smart fitted suit with rounded collars- very sexy combination indeed.

To imitate this look we recommend either Toeless over knee socks Arabella by Veneziana at just £6.95 or Black Over Shoe leggings Riyo 04 By Gatta at £9.99

Prada’s collection Autumn/Winter 2010-2011 was inspired by the feminie silhouette with waist pinching dresses and coats derived from 50s fashion trends. But there were also present designs with a  clear inspiration from the 60s with short simple empire line and coats and A line skirts. Tights and socks were a big part of the collection. Thick woolen ribbed tights and foldover knee highs worn with sandals and court shoes complemented the garments. Tights were mostly grey with black with contrasting brights colour shoes.

Chanel  ready to wear collection Spring Summer 2010 also featured models wearing white tights with heavy clogs.
It creats a great contrast and the purity and lightness of white tights making chunky clogs look quiet elegant.
We will definitely see clogs worn with floral print dresses and summer skirts or even leggings in upcoming summer season.

Also another trend brought by Chanel are black tights with white tattoos

You can find this type of trend at Itsocks.co.uk – just see tights Nila by Fiore.
